Territorial and Subject-Matter Jurisdiction of the Directorate for Maritime Transport in Split
Ante Vuković
Sažetak
The aim of this paper is to analyse the affairs/activities in which the Directorate for Maritime Transport was engaged during a twenty-year period (1925 – 1941) and (1945 – 1949). The tasks conducted by this central state authority for all maritime activities on the seacost territory were diverse. For instance, the following subject matters were within its jurisdiction: a) maritime domain management; b) coastal navigation surveillance; c) improvement of shipping and naval architecture; d) fisheries and sport fishing; e) the design, construction and maintenance of seaports, berths and other maritime facilities; f) cooperation with seafarers and other affairs. In short, research based on an analysis of part of the rich archival materials from the State Archives in Split and Croatian legal and maritime affairs history reveals its numerous, but to the wider scientific and professional public insufficiently known, activities in the field of maritime administration. The Kingdom of SHS, the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and the Federal People’s Republic of Yugoslavia built an organisational system of maritime administration modelled on the Austrian Central Maritime Administration in Trieste, founded in 1850. Regarding the legal status of the maritime domain, the Directorate, in carrying out everyday activities, implemented the provision according to which the coastline (shore) is indeed a common good for general use, where no real property rights can be acquired on it, and where it can be granted for use by means of privilege (concession). A conclusion is drawn that the Directorate performed the tasks of the disposal, management, and supervision of the maritime domain in an appropriate and conscientious manner.
